Showing jpeg, png, gif, etc images

Hey all,

I'm using fltk 1.3 and ms visual studio 2005.

I'm trying to get a simple image viewer going and am having trouble. I am trying to get erco's sample code to work for a jump off point but no dice. I have all the necessary libraries linked and i dont get any complier or linker errors but the program only displays a window with a gray box.

Here is the code I'm using:

CPP / C++ / C Code:

#include <FL/Fl.H>
#include <FL/Fl_Window.H>
#include <FL/Fl_Shared_Image.H>
#include <FL/Fl_JPEG_Image.H>
#include <FL/Fl_Box.H>

int main() {
    fl_register_images();                       // initialize image lib
    Fl_Window     win(720,486);                 // make a window
    Fl_Box        box(10,10,720-20,486-20);     // widget that will contain image
    Fl_JPEG_Image jpg("browns.jpg");      // load jpeg image into ram
    box.image(jpg);                             // attach jpg image to box
    win.show();
    return(Fl::run());
}

I have tried all different ways to write the path for the actual file browns.jpg even going so far as using the absolute path and still nothing but a gray box. This is part of a larger project but I'm just trying to get erco's example to work in order to figure out how it all works. If there are any questions you guys have in order to get better clarification just let me know.

Thanks
